Pros

There were a ton a places to advance and move your career if you were willing to put forth the effort. The company has great benefits, possible flexability with your work schedule, and a very friendly atmosphere.

Cons

Its a large company so as a whole it lacked the work "family" experience. However, you got that feeling from working on individual programs. And like any big company its easy to get lost in the masses but people willing to put in the extra effort did get recognized.

Business Outlook

Pros

Raytheon is committed to providing the highest quality products to our customers. Raytheon has an inclusive and respectful environment. Raytheon offers extremely competitive compensation packages.

Cons

Raytheon is a very process driven company which can sometimes limit innovation and out of the box thinking. That said however, it is possible to tailor processes with appropriate levels of approval. Raytheon is a matrixed organization that is functional driven, which can sometimes cause tension supporting programs in terms of conflicting priorities, goals, and process. All that said however, with strong program leadership, this all can be overcome.
